DR99 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Well Dewalt is rumored to be launching a new higher voltage platform. I'm conflicted as Milwaukee the whole power tool market was moving away from the higher volt tools and standardizing on 18v platforms. They were getting near corded power with 18v packs. The only 36v tools that were selling were the sds drills really. The M28 fuel drills have been out for about a year now, but have zero marketing from Milwaukee.

JimboS1ice Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 that lines on life support, somebody on here got m28 SDS by accident instead of the m18 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I wonder if he got some false information tool companies are not cool with new product information being outed like that. Although I think he's on the outs with Milwaukee after his nailer review. Technically we are not supposed to talk about RTR cause of the shit he started with TIA, but this isn't a true promotion and it is interesting.

I hope a Milwaukee agent doesn't come knocking on my door because of this post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 No Dewalt was more pissed than any company so far in awhile at TIA at their leak about a month ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 Why would they release a hole hawg and a super hawg? That list just seems skeptical to me, they came out with the 9.0 batteries to take the edge off the week higher voltage line and allow you not to have to have the higher voltage packs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stercorarius Posted May 31, 2016 Report Share Posted May 31, 2016 I dunno. My wallet can't tolerate a 28v grinder and impact wrench. I don't know how credible this info is. I would find it hard to believe. Who knows though. RTR has a particularly irritating set of facial expressions so I find it hard to believe anything he says. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doubtful on them pushing the M28 line after so many years or neglect and pushing M18 as their dominant line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea they've been swinging hard with m18 taking everything out so why would they go with m28?
